The Zunes on eBay over here are either non-existent or super expensive unfortunately
As much as I dislike Gibson, out of principle I'm 100% on their side in this argument
Oh I wish I had a Zune HD, it's exactly my kinda thing; quirky, niche and pretty much failed. I loved the interface of that old Zune media player that was available for Windows 7, used that for quite a while before switching to Foobar2k.
Nokia Mix Radio was amazing as well, used that all the time on my Lumia 930.
I don’t think that Trump is anti-LGBTQ+. For that, he would need to have some kind of principles.
I think he's just an opportunist, he says the things his followers want to hear and only befriends rich, powerful people. Even if he realised what harm he's doing to the rest of us he wouldn't care, cause he's sitting at the cool kid's table so to speak.
Windows Phone, particularly Windows Phone 8.1. It had its flaws, the biggest being the lack of third-party support of course but the UX was the best I've ever experienced on a mobile device.
The UI was very different from Android/iOS but felt more consistent and intuitive. The Live Tiles especially were just such a good feature to get as much information as possible on one screen. And it all looked so incredibly good for the time with its silky smooth animations.
It's a shame Microsoft ruined it all with Windows Phone 10...
They've added upgradable RAM with the Gen 5 models. The WIFI card is soldered, though, which isn't as bad but still meh for longevity IMO
My brand new ThinkPad P14s Gen 5 has HDMI, two USB-A 5Gbps ports, a headset jack, a half-height Ethernet port, as well as two thunderbolt 4 ports and an optional smartcard reader.
I agree that Apple kinda inadvertently ruined the port selection on many laptops for a while but it's gotten better over the years; even Apple brought back HDMI and SD-Card readers.
The RAM is upgradable in the new T-Series ThinkPads, both sticks, which is really cool.
Edit: seems like it's not upgradable on the T14s... It is on the P14s AMD and they share the same chassis I think. That's kinda strange.
What's the thermal situation like? I recently bought a P14s (I can post a review if anyone's interested) and decided to go with intel seeing as Meteor Lake seems oddly more efficient than Zen 4 when it comes to laptops.
Sure, whatever.
At this point, I frankly don't even really care anymore.
Typical CEO ragebaiting to make themselves seem relevant.
I'd much rather have a modern take on a 90s InWin case or something. Rock solid, tons of I/O options and very tall.
Modern cases need to bring back optical drive bays...
Seem like "his" AI isn't that bad after all, eh?
Still wouldn't wanna use it but it's something I guess
I hope so. Canadians are great, eh?
Not really, they gave me a choice ("feel free to") and I chose not to....
I probably just woosh'd myself, didn't I?
I've got no reason to hate you; I don't even know you.
ThinkPad P14s G5 AMD OLED in Germany
Does anyone know how to order or configure the P14s G5 AMD with a OLED display on the German Lenovo site?
The OLED display seems to be NA exclusive apart from a few overpriced offers from third party sites...
Can someone ID this comic strip?
Some time ago, I pulled this sticker off our old fridge before we got rid of it and put it onto my PC's side panel (don't ask me why, I guess I thought it looked cool). I don't exactly know where it came from or who put it there, although I suspect it was put there by a Australian relative that was visiting us a long time ago (the Murrumbidgee is a river in NSW, Australia).
Does anyone know the artist or name of this if it even has one? There's no obvious signature that I can see.
Feel free to remove if this isn't allowed.
What are some good casual Discord servers for talking to people from all over the world?
I just wanna get to know people and maybe make a few friends. I've tried a bunch of servers over the years, both general and specific ones but it never really worked out I guess? (I'm a pretty awkward person to talk to, maybe that's why^^)
Pixel 6 Pro main camera lens jolts around violently when going into video mode
When switching into video mode from photo mode or vice versa the main lens' OIS kinda jolts it around which makes a rather loud click.
I'm on Android 14 and the latest Google Camera update.
Hall Of The Mountain Grill - Hawkwind (1974)
Probably my favourite album cover, really sets the mood for the music as well
What do you like to collect?
Saw a post like this on Reddit once and I thought some of the responses were quite interesting.
I collect all sorts of stuff from vinyl records and vintage game consoles to Harley-Davidson dealer t-shirts.
I'm curious about what some of you guys collect, the weirder the better :D
Blu-Ray Drive in a T540P?
I know they never were an option since the T400/T500 days and I've seen people flat out say that even if they fit, they won't work with the T440P/T540P.
There are a bunch of different stores online selling the Hitachi LG BU20N as "for Lenovo T440P/T540P" and some also claim that the Matsushita UJ262 would work.
Has anyone got a Blu-ray drive in their T440P/T540P or knows if it would work?
Edit: Saw someone claim they got a Hitachi LG BU40N working in a T440P and since that's basically the same as the BU20N, with added UHD Blu-Ray support, that means the BU20N should work fine?
Next time I see them being sold at a reasonable price I'll grab one and just try it out for myself.
Edit 2: For anyone coming across this post in the future; I now have a HLDS BU20N (HP OEM) installed in my T540p and it plays back blu-ray discs without issue.
Updated Edge and it now seems to put a frame with rounded corners around every website
Edit: Looks like you can opt-out of that "new look and feel" pretty easily under the appearance settings but still, whats with putting rounded corners everywhere?
Edit 2: "Explore the web with a softer, more friendly aesthetic featuring rounded corners [..] Designed to complement your operating system, whether on Windows 11, MacOS, or Linux." The fuck does that mean? Windows 11 fair enough but most Linux distros don't look like that at all.
Polygondwanaland - King Gizzard & The Wizard Lizard (2017)
One of the seven albums they've released that year and in my opinion also their best one so far.
T41 sticky lid
A friend of mine gave a an old ThinkPad T41 and it's in great condition for one of these without any cracks in the chassis. There are a few marks on the display but it doesn't look like it's cracked (I don't have the right power supply to test it out).
The biggest problem with it so far is that the rubberised finish on the lid has turned sticky. I tried to wipe it down with diluted isopropyl alcohol and while it looks pretty clean now it's still very sticky.
Is there a way to fix the stickiness without full-on scraping the coating off?

Windows Destruction Movie Poster I made a while ago
Actually took screenshots of the UI myself in a Windows XP VM to make this, was a lot of fun putting it all together.
